It is rare, but not unheard of, for members of the Garlean race to be able to use magic.
your highlighting those words doesn't mean pureblooded Garleans have a small chance to manipulate aether. It means using Magitech they might be able to bypass their lack of ability with aetherial manipulation and maybe possibly give themselves something like the Echo or even the abilities of the Ascians. This doesn't mean a 1 in 10000000 chance of an Arcanist.
